Just like our shields we utilize the same basic philosophy in construction,keep it simple. The Venture Light is hand made in house, and not perfect by far,however what it lacks in style, it makes up for in strength, durability,reliability and safety. Unlike any other shield lights on the market,our light batteries are onthe front of the shield instead of on the back(why is that important)all new l.e.d. lights uselithium batteries, which are highly flammable if broken open or exposed to air(if compromised inaction better on the front of the shield than in your face)This light has come about through years of research with the most brutal testers availableLAW ENFORCEMENT. We have a great working relationship with the boys in blue, especially our swatagencies, we find their input invaluable to our products, making Venture one of the premiershield companies today.

Lights, Batteries and safety -Most shields on the market today come with aftermarket light packages powered with 2 expensive cr123 Primary (non rechargeable) or similarly sized rechargeable cells called RCR123. CR and RCR are both 3-3.6 volts 700Ma-1500Ma good voltage however MAH(milli Ampere hour) Battery life is minimal. Venture uses 2 batteries as well, although we use a more powerful 18650 battery 3.7-4.2 volt at 3000Mah, this battery is more powerful and has exceptional battery life at nearly half the cost of the 123's. The use of Li-ion/lithium battery is essential if you want to have the brightest light available, however these batteries have a higher energy density, which provide a distinct fire protection challenge, given the current body of knowledge available regarding Li-ion battery fires. The severity of a Li-ion cell failure will be strongly affected by the total energy stored in that cell, when they catch fire it is fast and burns at a high rate. Venture became aware of the danger when a battery was breached during testing, Venture decided to find a shield light that had the batteries on the front (thinking if breached in action at least the flames would be away from operate instead of in his face or hands. After a long and arduous search we could not find a aftermarket light setup acceptable, none addressing the issue of this fire hazard at all, as if ignorant of the danger all together. Venture find that unacceptable and is how we came about making our own lights system, such important safety issue can not be ignored.
